About King of Gamblers
Working for a slick restaurateur who has fallen for her, a down-on-life songstress falls instead for a crusading crime reporter, unaware that her employer is the secret head of the city's major gambling machine racket and has a penchant for murdering anyone who gets in his way.
Directed by Robert Florey, King of Gamblers leans on a strong ensemble — Akim Tamiroff, Claire Trevor, Lloyd Nolan — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1937.
